Thread: Forum host

  1. #1

    Forum host

    Hello! We´re a group who currently has a forum. Problem is that we are on a server that gives ridiculously little amount of bandwith, for a forum of our size.

    So we are looking for a host, that can offer us this:

    1) PHP and MySQL of course.

    2) About 30 GB bandwith/month or more

    3) Control panel

    4) No banners nor pop-ups.

    I think those are all we need. It has to support an already made PhpBB forum that is up and running, and that we can just move the forum to the new server.

    The price... Well, since I´m not the one who deals with it, it might be better if you can tell me the prices for those servers who can offer THIS.

    You really need to give a price you will pay rather than ask for 'bids' so you get a good reliable host and your forum is stable given that you think the forum will hit 30Gig or more per month.

    I concur with Decker, bids are not the best way to go, however the upside is you can check out better prices, and who's offering what, for what. This is definantly the place to go for that

    While I've never used them, take a look at Hostgator.com. They offer 4 GB of space and 30 GB transfer for $14.95. You aren't going to find many stable, proven hosts for much less than that. Browse their members forum and get a better feel as to how things run.
    •Beware of self praising hosts. Unfound claims.•
    •Beware of hosts/resellers who promise the world for next to nothing.•
    •Do your homework before selecting a hosting provider. Ask questions.•
